Re: [cinjug-users] embedded SMTP server

[jf <jfister@xxxxxxxxx>]

Have you considered using a 3rd party SMTP company such as webmail.us?
 Or, here's another I found right away that allows 10,000 emails per
month for less than $20/month:

Another idea is to get a cheap VPS, which will have sendmail (or
equivalent) running already.

Good luck!
